Harry Maguire's future at Manchester United is under fresh doubt, with Serie A clubs Napoli, Inter and Fiorentina reportedly interested in signing the defender in January. The uncertainty has prompted United to consider Nottingham Forest centre-back Murillo as a permanent option to bolster their backline.
Murillo has impressed for Forest this season, and United see him as a potential long-term successor to Maguire. The Brazilian's arrival would likely depend on Maguire's departure, with the Red Devils open to letting the England international leave if a suitable offer arrives.
Meanwhile, manager Ruben Amorim may also look to strengthen midfield, with Middlesbrough's Hayden Hackney linked. The midfielder previously worked with United coach Michael Carrick at the Riverside, and Tottenham are also monitoring his situation. A move for Hackney could hinge on whether Kobbie Mainoo is restored to the United midfield.
